title: Nonrotational scanning in panoramic radiography.
abstract: A mathematical analysis of orthoradiography, nonrotational scanning in panoramic radiography, and rotational panoramic radiography shows that they may all be described by the same set of equations. The other two techniques may be regarded as special cases of rotational panoramic radiography.
